Mission Comments |
Focus on Transportation The 384th Bombardment Group (Heavy) provided two group formations for today's mission attacking transportation targets. The first group flew as the high group of the 41st A Combat Bombardment Wing (41A Group) to Sarreguemines, and the second group flew as the high group of the 41st B Combat Bombardment Wing (41B Group) to Blainville-sur-l'Eau. Excellent bombing was possible in the CAVU conditions, and the bombers really hit their targets accurately. |
